About: I have been a dog lover all of my life and know how important their care is. Dogs are just part of the family! I love getting to know each dogs personality and figure go above and beyond to consider the needs of a variety of pups. I have a flexible schedule allowing me to provide constant care for your pup. I am interested in meeting and caring for all types of dogs, big/small, puppy or seniors! I can be as flexible as possible and will be honest about your pup’s care. I will treat your fur-babes like part of the family. We have a fenced in yard and If your pup is more comfortable as part of the pack, they are invited in to have the run of the house with our family dogs. We love dogs and will try to accommodate any special requests. Available to check in on your pups every 4 hours (m-f) and spend weekends all day with your dogs! I can check in with your pups every 3-4 hours during the day and be there to stay after 4 pm. I prioritize feeding and potty schedules to make sure there are little to no changes in their routines. I care for your pets like they are my own. Figuring out they’re behaviors and personalities is important to me. Some dogs need lots of love and attention and others like their space, either way they’ll be in great hands.

About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 14, living with them longer. I also currently live on a farm and have good hands when it comes to working with animals! I’m a college student, home for holidays, and sometimes weekends! I have an open schedule most holidays and can come home over a weekend if needed! A safe, leash-controlled environment ensures pets enjoy outdoor activities responsibly, with supervised play, regular walks, and plenty of attention, prioritizing their comfort, health, and safety.

About: Hi, I’m Sydney! I grew up on a farm, so animals have been part of my daily life for as long as I can remember. I’m confident with everything from barn cats to reactive dogs, and I’m no stranger to giving meds—pills, topicals, even injections. Whether your pet needs a calm walk, some playtime, or just a little company while you’re away, I’ve got it covered. My flexible schedule means your pet gets reliable care and plenty of attention—because they deserve nothing less! Pet care fits perfectly into my current lifestyle because I have an open and flexible schedule. That means I can focus on giving your pet the attention they deserve—whether it’s a midday walk, an early morning visit, or a last-minute check-in. I’m not juggling a 9–5, so your pet gets a sitter who’s reliable, available, and fully present. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to stick closely to their normal routine—because pets feel safest when things feel familiar. Whether it’s refreshing food and water, going for a walk, playtime, or just offering some company and belly rubs, I’m all about making your pet feel comfortable and cared for. I’m respectful of your space, leave things how I found them, and always send updates so you know how your furry friend is doing while you’re away.

“Great! I love her pics and she was able to manage my somewhat unruly dog! Thank you!!!”

About: Over the past couple of years, I’ve had the joy of caring for family and friends dogs when needed, giving their dogs a loving home away from home. I work from home so I have flexibility of time and a lot of love to give to your furry friend! Available for boarding any day of the week. My fenced-in back yard offers a safe environment for fresh air, fun, and exercise. Dogs allowed on furniture. I have a two year old lab who loves other dogs! I can also crate if needed.

About: I am a former police Richmond Police Officer who has worked with and cared for dogs since age 12 in many settings. Aside from my parents and grandparents raising dogs, I worked several hundred hours of community service in a dog boarding and dog training facility in upstate New York prior to them hiring me as a teen to continue there after completing the hours. I trained our own family dogs are well as friend’s dogs even in my teen years. I have raised and shown bulldogs for the last 10 years and my daughter has grown to develop a passion for caring for dogs as well. She’s turning into a little dog whisperer and I love fueling the passion her and I share. As we are in a transitioning time and creating plans for the future, I would like to provide trusting care for dog owners in the community that value the care and safety of their dogs while they have obligations or vacations where they need to arrange accommodations for their beloved dogs. Rather than having someone who walks your dog with no real concern for bettering the quality of life of the dog in a way their owner can recognize, I would like to provide care with structure and stimulation in a safe environment so dog owners can know their dog thrived and was well exercised and cared for while they were away. Pet care is a main part of every day for me whether it be for our own dogs or dogs of friends. I will be offering my services for weekends and holidays until further changes can be made. We have a few acres and a fenced in area for dogs to run off leash as well. We are currently working on creating a larger fenced yard as well. When I am caring for someone’s pet in my home, they’re are treated as our own loved dog. We have structured days where they are inside hanging out as well as receiving plenty of exercise in the yard. Depending on the client and the dog I enjoy spending time working on manners and walking with a leash while dogs are in my care so owners see the difference. We have several crates and the ability to accommodate for dogs that may need to be kept separate from other dogs or have special needs as well. I offer to care for clients’ dogs both at my own home or at theirs, based on client preference. My goal is to provide a quality service that clients and their dogs trust and enjoy long term.

“Noelle was very kind, responsible and dependable. Zuri seemed to enjoy her time with Noelle. Highly recommend her and will use Noelle again when in town!!”

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was seven years old. My family had two kittens that I cared for and I was responsible for pet sitting other fur babies in the neighborhood growing up. I also attended many animal science/nature camps growing up, it’s where I got my first hermit crab! I also know the Heimlich maneuver for both cats and dogs. In my junior year of high school I applied and was accepted to the HOSA veterinary science program where I graduated in the National Honors Society. Shortly after graduation, I started working at a veterinary hospital as a veterinary assistant. My job was to help restrain animals for exams/shots, organize medications, prepare/read fecal slides and determine if intestinal parasites are present, collect urine samples, and provide basic care. Overall I have had personal experience caring for dogs/puppies, cats/kittens, goats, horses, hamsters, chickens/chicks, pigs, guinea pigs, rabbits, chinchillas, ferrets, chinchillas, birds, lizards, snakes, frogs, turtles, hermit crabs, and axolotls. I am currently a student in nursing school and am working as a part time server. I only have classes two days a week on Monday (6 AM - 6 PM) and Tuesday (8:30 AM - 11:15 AM) and work a couple hours 2 evenings a week, but can take off if needed for services. I like to learn about their daily routine and what they like to do for fun so and incorporate those things into our routine while clients are gone, so pets feel safe and relaxed while their family isn’t there.
